I am going to a costume party in a few weeks. I want to dress as the Johnny Walker mascot Pic, but I can't find a red tailcoat in the U.S!
Help! :)

No, I'm not looking for a costume. I'm looking for a red tailcoat, and the only ones I can seem to find are in the UK.

How do I do that? I can actually dye something myself and it will look good?

Just make sure it's 100% cotton, and the dye should work great.

Any decent uniform shop should be able to order one of these (waiter/usher coats). I don't know your budget... have you tried thrift stores and Goodwill? I know if you are near a military base, you can get these in white.

I'm willing to spend some good money on it, but it's got to be a tailcoat.
